THE GEORGIA ORATOR REPLIES TO THE
OHIO STATESMAN.

ATLANTA. November 1.-The speech
of Ex-senator Thurman in Columbus,
O.. on Gen. Henry r. Jackson has Gre
ated much comment here. Gen. Jack
son is 81 years OF age and for mIre than
forty wears has been prominent and
honored citizen OF Georgia, and that EX-
Senator Thurman, who has always been
in high favor here, should have made
such personal attack upon him caused
great surprise. Gen. Jackson tonight
furnished the Constitution with the fol-
lowing card:
MARIETTA, GA, November =
Messrs. Editors: The statemc,t which
Judge Thurman is reported to have
made about ME at Columbus, Ohio, to
the effect that Grover Cleveland recalled
me- from my mission to Mexico. and his
irtimation that was recalled because l
cot too drank there to be OF any uSe,are
Utterly false and destitute nf the slight
est foundation. In fact, was not re-
called except ut my own request. re-
signed OF my own volition, without sug-
gestion from any ole, for reasons per-
fectlv satisfactory to myself. My reSlg-
nation thus rendered was not accepted
for mouths. Judge Thurman's further
statement that the President and DEM
ocratic party have no more malignant
enemy in the United States than is
equally false. I have too high respect
for Judge Thurman's character to doubt
that he will be quick to correct the gross
misrepresentation, which, if he made
them at all, cannot believe he would
have knowingly made.
Yours very truly,
HENRY r. JACKsON.'

ANXIETY IN EUROPE
Fears Of What May Follow When the
Emperor William Dies.
From tile New York Herald.

LONDON, November 3.-There is at
this moment subject of great anxiety
to men in governing positions apart from
Irish ailairs-namely. the health OF the
German Emperor. Very disquietlng re-
ports have been received here in high
quarters, and although the Emperor may
make another wonderful rally, still there
cannot be many more such recoveries
for a man heyond his ninetieth year.
The uneasiness which was excited all
over Europe by the bare prospect OF the
aged Emperor'S death was only family
indicated the other day by the agitation
which ran though all the stock markets
and their temporary collapse. The pos
sibility of the death of this man of more
than ninety years came upon Europe
like a shock OF earthquake.
Why was this? The explanation may
partly be sought for at Baveno. The
death of Emperor William would create
a gap in any case, but if it came at
time when his son was incapl citated by
grievous malady and weighed down by
the dread of undergoing slow martyr
dom from it, it is quite clear that the
gravity OF the situation would much in
crease. That is e real source OF anX-
lety to-day. Disguise the fact as we
NAV there is no denying that the Crown
Prince is depressed by his atfliction, and
even his magnificent constitution is not
proof against its inroads. The doctors
do and say all that they can in the way
OF encouragement, but the guarded let
ter OF Dr.. Morrell Mackenzie, lately pub
iished, showed how seriously he regards
the case. He throws upon Prof. Vir-
CHOW al the responsibility OF defining
the disease, wisely contining himself to
the work of checking its progress; but
during this period Of suspense the pa
tient cannot be we'll fitted to take the
cares of an enormous empire upon his
shoulders.
In the background is the Crown
Princes eldest son, beloved by the En-
pcror aud Bismarck and devotedly at
tachcd to the Bismarckian policy.
Should events call him to the throne.
what woul'l be the effect on the peace OF
Europe? This is the question that con-
fronts European Governments-one to
which the shrcwdest statesmen cannot
find and answer.

No Base Ball In Charleston on Sunday

Condensed from Ne,cs and Courier, 7h.
There is no telling how many people
were disappointed at not seeing the st.
Louis Browns and Chicagos play ball at
Wagener Park yesterday afternoon, for
the reason that all idea OF having the
game was abandoned about half past =
O'Clock, the police having given notice
that Sunday ball playing was against
the law, and that the game would be
stopped if any attempt was made to have
it. From the number c: tickets already
sold and the number OF carriages and
buggies engaged beforehand, it is pre-
sumed that the crowd would have been
large one.
1t is a we'll known fact that the direc-
tors OF the Charleston Base Ball Club
are opposed to playing ball on Sunday,
and it is also fact, although not so gen.
orally known perhaps, that they will not
take part in the sport next season un-
less Sunday ball playing is prohibited
by the Southern League. There IS also
a city ordinance which says that mo
sports, pa>times, pablic exercises, exhi-
bilious or games whatsoever shall be al
lowed on the Lords Day, and every per-
son so offending shall forfeit for every
such offence sum not exceeding s2O."
In view of these conditions and the
fact that this was the first issue that had
been made in regard to professional ball
playing here on Sunday, there was nat
urally Il good deal of curiosity to see
what would come Of it. Shortly after 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon, however,
Chief of Police Golden repaired to the
Charleston Hotel and Informed Mr.
Munson that his men would be arrested
il they attempted to play ball on Sun
dav.
Mr.. Munson disclaimed any intention
of playing against the law, and prompt
" declared the game off, while the mon
ev was refunded for all tickets already
sold.
The announcement in the Sunday
.Ners that it was intended to play game
of base ball on Sunday in Charleston
caused considerable sensation, and eX-
cited deep Indignation on the part OF the
citizens in general. 1t was plain that
the projected performance was i'll viola
ton of the city ordinance and was be-
sides repugnant to the good sense and
best wishes of the truly religious citizens
in general.
It appears that, on Saturday evening,
the matter had been brought to the at
tention of Lieut.. Golden, the chief OF po-
lice, who at once gave his attention to
the matter, and after consulting with
the authorities, he yesterday called on
the manager of the proposed game and
informed him that it would not be per-
mitted to be played. This information
was received in very kindly spirit, and
the chief OF police was informed that no
attempt would be made to carry on the
crnr

We read great deal in many of

is very nice to write about retrench-

to generalize and talk about the
beauties of reform and the great
benefit to be derived from needed
reforms in our government and its
administration. What we want some
of these reformers to do is to file a
bill Of particulars and let the people
know wherein these reforms can be

1t Makes Him Laugh.
E1nefeLI Chronicle.

Judge Presley was to have held Court
in Abbeville last week, but was so sick
he could do, nothing. He is still lying
i'll there. 1t will be remembered that
year or more ago in our own Court,
Judge Presley declined to try Jones,
the triple murderer, because Jones'S
counsel twitted him with probably being
kin to old Edward Presley, because he
looked so much like him. We are sorry
that Judge Presley Is sick; but ever
since that memorable judicial perform
ance, we have thought he ought to re-
sign. "Must be kin to old Edward
Presley because he looked so much like
him. We did not laugh then; but
every time we think OF it now, we feel
like rending our frail ribs asunder.

jackson Of Georgia, and Foraker Of
Ohio.

COLUMBUS, OHIO. November c.
Judge Thurman, late last night i'll an
address to the Thurman club, at which
only members and invited guests were
present, used the following words, in
speaking of Judge Jackson's recent
speech at Macon, Georgia /:
IAN old crank down in Georgia
named Jackson, God forgive him for
bearing that name Or disappointed pol
itician, man whom Grover Cleveland
recalled from his mission to Mexico,
some say because he got too drunk there
to be OF any uSe-I don't know how that
is; am not accustomed TO making per-
sonal charges-but what l do know
is that the President recalled him, and
that from the day he was recalled to this
day it is said that the President and the
Democratic party have no more malig-
nant enemy in the United States than
he. lApplauSe.l This OLD fool at a
meetingat Macon, month ago, or some
thing like that. saw tit to make a speech
and declare that the doctrine Of Seces-
sion was not dead. Why, my friends, if
4 man can make such Il declaration as
that and not be an idiot, or what is
worse, I; miSchies-naker, then | don't
know what idiocy and misunderstanding
are. The doctrine of secession not dead?
Why, what ever life it had was killed
stone dead by the civil war. Everybody
who has the least honesty himself must
acknowledge that. Where is it that it
is alive? Where is the necessity OF
blowing trumpets and beating drums
and sounding bugles in the North to put
down the doctrine of secession, when
the South itself, in the most emphatic
and binding manner in which men can
speak, have put it under their feet"
Judge Thurman then quoted anti-Se-
cession articles from the Constitution of
Georgia and other Southern States, AMI
said that Joseph B. Foraker was doing
more for di<union BY his speeches than
all the Jacksons that ever bore that
name ever did.

made. Our coten1porary, the Colum-
bia Register, il recent issue, has
an editorial on needed reforms, but
it only says reforms are needed With
out telling US how these reforms are
to be made. For instance, it says:
::We hold that the Trial Justice sys-
TEN is eninently defective in its
operation. Reform that" Yes, re-
form it. But what we desire to
know, and what the people would
like to know is, how and wherein IS
it detective? Point out its defcien-
cies. We do not pretend to say that
it is not defective. But wherein:
Give US something better or improve
this system before you tear it down,
it seems to us is the better plan.
Again, our cotemporary says, ""e
hold that our entire county system
of government is too cumbersome
and is unnecessarily expensive. Re
form that. We hold that the court
or legal charges, especially in the Of
fee of Master il Equity, are exces-
sive-and that the fees and costs IN
winding up estates, large and small,
are extra7agant. Reform that" If
our county system is too cumbersome
and extravagant how will you make
it less so? We do not pretend to say
that it is not. What we want is
better plaza less cumbersome one
"a less expensive one-before we
undertake to destroy the one we have.
Again, our cotemporary says, "As
to the Railroad Commissioners, we
hold that all but one might be dis
pensed with. Reform that" Now
YOU come at it. We understand that.
If we were going to reform the rail
road commission, however, we would
dispense with three.
As to the salary question, our CO.
temporary thinks. the salaries OF State
officers low enough-and does not
want them reduced. We agree that
if there are any evils they can and
| ought to be remedied within the par.
ty. Our cotemporary sums up as
follows:
'Hence to sum up. Reform ou1
county system-our court charges
our Trial Justice system-our mum,
Der of Railroad Commissioners. But
leave the salary question as it is"
Some of the would-be reformers
undertake to abuse our present Off
cials, and to impugn their motives,
and defame their characters. This
mode Of procedure will never accom-
plish much for genuine reform in
any particular: Nothing can be
gained, no cause can be advanced by
abuse and vituperation.
There ale evils; none will at
tempt to deny this. No system
of government is perfect. How
and where these evils can best
be remedied is what the people
and the friends of the State and OF
society want to know, and few Will
refuse to lend a helping hand to rem
edy the evil. 1t is easy to criticize
and find fault and condemn, and we
should be careful how we do this,un-
less we have remedy to offer.
